Xiaoying Han

Xiaoying (Maggie) Han is a Chinese mathematician whose research concerns random dynamical systems, stochastic differential equations, and actuarial science. She is Marguerite Scharnagle Endowed Professor in Mathematics at Auburn University.^[1]

Education and career

Han graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2001. She completed her Ph.D. in 2007 at the University at Buffalo.^[1] Her dissertation, Interlayer Mixing in Thin Film Growth, was supervised by Brian J. Spencer.^[2] She joined the Auburn faculty in 2007. She was promoted to full professor in 2017, and given the Marguerite Scharnagle Endowed Professorship in 2018.^[1]

In 2020 she was named a Fulbright Scholar, funding her for a research visit to Brazil in 2021.^[3]
